A pattern is describe by an= 3n -5 what are the first four ters of the sequence?

9514 1404 393

  -2, 1, 4, 7

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with n=1. Put the value where n is in the expression and do the arithmetic.

  a1 = 3·1 -5 = -2

  a2 = 3·2 -5 = 1

  a3 = 3·3 -5 = 4

  a4 = 3·4 -5 = 7

You may notice that each term is 3 more than the previous one.

answer: i literally just answered this question but they want me to do it again

step-by-step explanation:

x = 2

step-by-step explanation:

if sr parallel to ba then the sides bc and ac are in proportion, that is

= ← substitute values

= ( cross- multiply )

27x = 6(4x + 1)

27x = 24x + 6 ( subtract 24x from both sides )

3x = 6 ( divide both sides by 3 )

x = 2
